Muhamed was the most amazing tour guide. Very thoughtful and kind! Knowledgeable and helped us navigate many unique expereience
Mohammed was a great guide, showing us both outside and inside the medina walls. We particularly enjoyed seeing the ceramics cooperative, souks, and tannery. He made us feel comfortable navigating the crowded alleys and took us to a wonderful hidden gem for lunch. Very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this tour for all visitors to Fes.
Great tour! Very well organized, the guide was friendly and knowledgeable, and we had an amazing time exploring. Highly recommend!
Mohammed was a great guide knowledgeable, he shouted around the old Medina and souks If you ever visit Fez try to book with him , he also helped us find driver to chefchaouen for an affordable price , highly recommended
Wonderful half day tour of Fez. Mohammad gave us all of the highlights and opportunities to explore. A perfect way to get oriented to Fez.
Informative tour and Ali our guide was great, highly recommend. There is so much to see and learn, we would have missed so much without Ali explaining
Great overall experience. Learned about carpets, leather, and scarves. Learned deep history about the city. Mohammed spoke great English and was happy to answer any questions.
An awesome walking tour through Fez! Explored its history and local culture. Mohammed was a great and knowledgeable guide.
Learned a lot about Moroccan culture! Our guide was awesome and supplied many facts and answered our questions with lots of detail.
We had an incredible experience with this agency! They truly showcased the essence of Moroccan culture, from the breathtaking carpets to the exquisite traditional handicrafts. Their professionalism and friendliness made the tour even more enjoyable. I can't recommend them enough. Definitely a must try for anyone visiting :)
Mohammad was an outstanding guide for our day in Fes, we learned so much on our tour, he was incredibly patient, genuine and welcoming and made Fes one of our favourite experiences on our Moroccan trip. I could not recommend this tour and his services more! It is such a pleasure to receive such a wonderful cultural experience from a kind and knowledgeable friend!
Momo was very kind and knowledgeable! He was happy to adapt the tour to suit our interests and shared interesting facts about his home town along the way. He was very patient, allowing us to take our time at the various co-ops and shops. It was a fantastic day!
The tour was amazing, Momo was very well informed and was a pleasure to spend the day with. We saw more than what we imagined we would in one day and had an incredible time! Would highly recommend this tour and Momo as the guide!
Momo was an amazing tour guide! You can tell how passionate he is about his city and the breadth of knowledge he has about Fes was fantastic. He was able to answer every question we had. There were opportunities to stop and shop when we wanted and he tailored the tour based on what our interests were. Would 100 percent recommend this tour to anyone who has only a few short days in Fes. You get to experience such rich culture in one day.
Our trip to Fez with friends was an incredible experience, and a huge part of that was thanks to Momo from Around Fez. He didn’t just take us around ,he showed us the soul of the city. From hidden alleys in the medina to the best local spots, Momo gave us a deep and authentic look into Fez’s culture. It felt like discovering the city with someone who truly lives and breathes it. Definitely a visit we’ll never forget.
The tour was fantastic. Mohammad was very knowledgeable and his English was very good. He did a wonderful job of giving my wife and me a deep appreciation and understanding of what we saw. I highly recommend him if you want to know more about Fez and its culture and sites but don’t want to be steered in to a bunch of shops.
Really enjoyed our time with Med as our guide. He shared so much about the real Moroccan culture, and made every visit meaningful. The traditional crafts experiences were also amazing — definitely an experience to remember…!!
Thanks to Around Fez, I had a fantastic time in Fez! From the beginning of the tour, everything was perfectly organized and I felt completely immersed in the culture and history of this beautiful city. Our guide was simply amazing - knowledgeable, friendly and full of passion for Fez. He not only showed us the main sights, but brought the medina to life with stories, historical background and personal insights that you won't find in any guidebook. His presence made all the difference. I felt like I was discovering a secret side of the city that is hidden from most tourists. The impact of this tour went beyond mere sightseeing - it gave me a deep appreciation for the rich traditions and vibrant life of Fès. I took away unforgettable memories and deepened my understanding of Moroccan culture. I highly recommend Around Fez to anyone looking for an authentic and enriching experience. It really was one of the highlights of my trip!

This was the highlight of our trip to Fez ✨ My sister and I were amazed by how Mohammed brought the Medina to life with his passion and stories. He showed us hidden gems, introduced us to talented artisans, and shared the city’s rich history in such an engaging way. His kindness and attention made us feel so welcomed. Thank you Mohammed for making this experience so special. If you’re visiting Fez, don’t miss this UNFORGETTABLE tour!
I was with my girlfriend, it was pleasant, the staff was respectful, the timing was respected, we’ve made many new acquaintances, wish we can meet them in the next time & have the same good time as the last time.
One of the best agencies i have ever been with, i have been come to Morocco since 2019, but my last experience here in morocco was exceptional, my wife and i had a blast an they took very good care of us, i will definitely book again with this company
My friend and I had a fantastic experience with Around Fez Day Tours! The guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel completely safe throughout the tour. We got to explore both the famous landmarks and some hidden gems we never would have found on our own. Everything was well-organized, making it a stress-free and memorable day. Highly recommend!
Great tour with loads of information. Mohammed is a nice guy and really knows his home town. Fes is a great Lille town to explore and get lost.
I booked this tour on short notice (day of) and immediately heard from Mohammed who, being outside the area, arranged for my walking tour with Youssef. Youssef expertly shared much about local life in the Medina (history, food, religion, etc) and escorted me to many desirable and photogenic locations. I enjoyed seeing the various trade sections such as woodworking, dyeing, tanning, weaving, etc. Of course I expected to be lobbied to buy various items in a few of these sections, and was, but certainly no undue pressure to purchase anything. Youssef was well spoken (english) and flexible on what to visit next. I certainly valued his knowledge of how to navigate the medina too!
Where do I begin? When visiting Fes you have to get a guide and when deciding which guide to go with you HAVE to choose Mohammed and Karim! Mohammed organized everything smoothly and I was picked up at the door of my Riad in the Medina by Karim. Karim is an excellent and knowlegeable guide! Not only did he grow up in the Medina he also knows all the places to get authentic goods such as rugs and leather goods (Seddik Fès Cuir) at a fair price. I felt very safe as a solo female traveller going through the large and bustling Medina with him. I highly recommend! Thank you Mohammed and Karim for an excellent experience!
Mohammed was an excellent guide!!!! We are so grateful to have found him!!! He took us to all the best places!!! He taught us so much history about Fes and his religion and culture!!!! We highly recommend him!!!! Thank you so much Mohammed and maybe we will get to see you again!!!
We very much enjoyed our day with Mohammed! His delightful personality and insights into the history and culture of Fes were unsurpassed!
Mohammed our guide was great , showed us all the historical sights, we spent a great time with local artisans around the medina Highly recommended
Muhammad was a very knowledgeable guide, and arranged many great stops in the Medina and around Fez based on our interests. We enjoyed every minute of our tour.

Muhammad was an excellent guide. We learned much from him enjoyed our tour of the city of Fez. You could tell he loved his home town and that came across in the what he showed us and and how he talked about each site. Would highly recommend him.
Really loved this walking tour with Mohammed- he was very knowledgeable and helped us explore all throughout the Medina. It was the perfect introduction to Fez and would definitely book with him again!

Mohammed was very knowledgeable and informative. He knew his history and was an excellent guide. We had a great day and learned so much about the city.
Mohamed was so welcoming and made me feel at ease on my first day in Fes. He took me to some hidden spots in the Medina where I got to see local artisans in their shops and was very patient while I shopped and made sure I got a good price. I would love to have a son in law like him, he was so kind, considerate, and caring especially considering my age. I can’t mention all of the wonderful things he showed me, I highly recommend this tour
Mohammed was a skilled and knowledgeable guide. He guided us through the Medina, took us to all the key sights and places and gave us the option to shop if we wanted.

I really enjoyed the tour, my friends liked it too, very interesting. The guide was flexible and friendly!
Great walking tour with Mohammed around old town of Fez, he was very knowledgeable, communicated very well in English and told us a lot of stories!
The visit was truly enjoyable and the fact that there weren't many people around in the morning made it even better. I recommend this agency.
Mohammed has earned our trust and we highly recommend him! Our visit was truly unforgettable and we all had a great time. We can't thank him enough for the wonderful experience.
This tour was so interesting and enjoyable. For reference, I am a single mom, I traveled with my 4 years old kid to Fez. I without any doubt recommend you book mohamed to be your guide. He brings a friendly fun touch to the activity.
